Hello!

Note that when seeing an odd number of negatives next to each other, it will remain negative, while having an even number would be positive. For example, -- is +, while --- is -.

Based on this information, we can rewrite the equation below.

2-1/8-7/4

Let's rewrite 7/4 out of 8.

2-1/8-14/8

2-15/8

Let's rewrite 2 as an improper fraction.

16/8-15/8=1/8

Therefore, our answer is 1/8.

X/6 + 4 = 15 what does x equal? What is x?
Umnica [9.8K]
Hello there! x = 66.

x/6 + 4 = 15

This means that since 15 - 4 = 11, x/6 = 11.

Given the two numbers and a variable, we can multiply:

6 x 11 = 66

66/6 = 11

Therefore, x = 66

Hope this helps!

Philip and Laura want to build a pool in their backyard. The length and width of the pool can be represented by the equation
lakkis [162]

The area of Philip and Laura's pool is 3x^2 - 13x - 10 square feet

<h3>Area of a rectangle</h3>

Givene the dimensiion of Philip and Laura's pool as:

Length = (x - 5)

Width  = (3x + 2)

Given the area expressed as:

f(x) = (x - 5)(3x + 2)feet

Taking the product will give:

f(x) = 3x^2 + 2x -15x - 10

f(x) = 3x^2 - 13x - 10

Hence the area of Philip and Laura's pool is 3x^2 - 13x - 10 square feet

Please help answer these
BabaBlast [244]
You should use the ratio so 

2/ 4  = 6.5 / n  

n= 6.5 x 4  / 2 =  13 inches 


2- for two hours ------> four inches of snow 
for x hours -----> y inches of snow 
the equation is 
2/4 = x/ y 

x= 2y / 4 
 for x is the hours and y is the inches

A rectangular garden is 44 feet longer than it is wide. it's perimeter is 328 feet. What s this equation?
Vadim26 [7]
Suppose width is X
then length would be X+44

perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + width)
substitute:
328 = 2 ( X+44 + X )
328 = 2 ( 2X + 44 )
328 = 4X + 88
328 - 88 = 4X
240 = 4X
240/4 = X
X = 60

substitute in the first and second line
width is X so width = 60 feet
length is X + 44 = 60 + 44 = 104 feet
